Welsh independence on 22:49 - May 7 with 3219 views | Lohengrin | Apathy is the elephant in the room here. Four years ago 65% of the Welsh electorate simply didn’t bother to vote, this time around when all the figures are in, and despite extending the franchise to adolescents too young to have started shaving, the percentage may be even lower. At what point does the legitimacy of the entire process be called into question? Just how small does a mandate to govern have to be? | |

I was disappointed by that as well. Why cant people vote on their phones Loh ? Certainly would help the young and the old/sick/scared of covid. You can do everything else in life on your phone. Shirley its worth a try. Scotland had 20% more. | |

Thinking of other people, and the community, not just me, me, me, which is a prerequisite of being a Tory. Welsh people care about other people. In my view you can be Welsh or you can be Conservative but you can't be both. The values are incompatible. | | | |

What an absolute load of nonsense. Do you actually believe Welsh people care more the the English 😂 People in England vote conservative, because they don’t want England to suffer the same fate , that Wales has. | |

Is the correct answer. Quite incredible that after a year in which the Welsh Government has had control over the minutiae of people's lives, to the point of making it illegal to see friends and family, it seems less than half of Welsh voters could be bothered to get off their arse and vote. Whether you've approved of Welsh Government policy or not, it has affected all of us immensely this last year and the fact that over half of voters apparently didn't have an opinion either way is quite frankly depressing. Labour's match made in heaven of blind tribalism and apathy seems to have combined to let them in again, perhaps even with an increased vote/seat share. Really is a dark day for democracy in Wales- piss poor turnout, more of the same stale, failing shite that we've had for 22 years and counting. I've said it before and I'll say it again- I'm a unionist but so help me god I'd rather Plaid were in government than another 5 years of that lot. | | | |

That’s the thing, Joe. A crisis demands a unified response, it’s what people largely expect and want. ‘Opposition’ at such a time (constructive scrutiny is different) can easily be seen, and certainly painted, as unhelpful at best. | |

Welsh independence on 23:17 - May 7 with 3155 views | felixstowe_jack | 47% turnout shows the majority of Wales is either apathetic to the senedd or don't believe they can make a change which is even more disappointing. PC dream of independence is slipping further away as they lose a constituency seat. | |

why is it blind tribalism in parts of Wales when folk vote for one party but completely ok for parts of England to continually vote for another party but that is not an issue or questioned? Asking for a friend. | |

I haven't made any comment on the electoral landscape in England. There is obviously blind tribalism in favour of the Tories too, but there's no doubt that the politics of England at the minute are more fluid than those of Wales. Places like Ashfield and Hartlepool going Tory, traditional tory territory in more affluent Southern areas going Labour/Lib Dem. Meanwhile the South Wales Valleys remained solidly red. Only 3 seats have changed hands this election, one of which was Labour taking back a Valleys constituency they surprisingly lost in 2016. | | | |

So one bi election makes England more fluid yet in Wales the same happened in the last election but that is not fluid. England is 17 times the size of Wales so for every one seat changing hands it should be 17 in England? | |
